NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday sharpened his attack on West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee and accused her government of turning Hindus into second-class citizens in the state.
While addressing back to back election rallies in Bardhaman-Durgapur and Krishnanagar, PM Modi alleged that All India Trinamool Congress is indulged in corruption and politics of appeasement.”Why have Hindus become second-class citizens in Bengal. An MLA of TMC gave a statement recently that they will throw Hindus in the Bhagirathi River. What kind of politics is this? Is appeasement more important than humanity for the TMC?” PM asked.
“The Congress, TMC and Left parties only believe in the politics of appeasement,” PM Modi also said.
During his address, PM Modi also criticized TMC for its ‘apathy’ towards the victims in SandeshKhali, where allegations of sexual abuse against TMC leaders have surfaced.
“The state government, due to its appeasement politics, didn’t touch the main accused in the Sandeshkhali case as his name is Shajahan Sheikh. So many atrocities were committed against women there, and the entire country wanted punishment for the culprits. But, the TMC kept protecting the main accused till the end,” he said.
On the recent seizure of a huge cache of ammunition by CBI, PM Modi rhetorically wondered whether the weapons were meant for ‘strengthening democracy’ in West Bengal.
PM Modi also came down heavily on the Bengal government for opposing the Citizenship Amendment Act.
“The Congress, TMC and Left parties only believe in the politics of appeasement,” Modi added.
Moreover, the Prime Minister also assured help to ‘genuine teachers and candidates’ who have lost jobs due to the School Service Commission (SSC) scam and asked the West Bengal BJP unit to create a separate legal cell.
While addressing an election rally at Bardhhaman-Durgapur, PM Modi said “Although he wants those involved in corruption by the TMC to be punished but doesn’t want the innocent to suffer.”
“The corruption that the TMC has done in Bengal in school recruitment is shameful. Due to this scam, several genuine candidates have suffered. I have asked the Bengal BJP unit on behalf of the party to create a separate legal cell and social media platform to provide help to the genuine candidates and teachers. BJP will support such honest candidates and will provide them legal help and will fight for them. This is Modi’s guarantee,” he added.
The remark came days after the Calcutta high court declared the recruitment process of the State Level Selection Test-2016 (SLST) in West Bengal government-sponsored and aided schools as “null and void,” ordering the cancellation of all appointments made through it.
Modi’s remarks came a week after the Calcutta High Court declared the recruitment process of the State Level Selection Test-2016 (SLST) in West Bengal government-sponsored and aided schools as “null and void,” ordering the cancellation of all appointments made through it.
Around 26,000 people have lost jobs following the court order.
Meanwhile, West Bengal chief minister retaliated to the allegations and said that BJP and PM Modi must answer on the Bengal Governor over sexually molesting a woman at Raj Bhawan
“Before talking about Sandeshkhali, BJP must answer why the Governor did this to a woman working at Raj Bhavan,” she said.
“My heart bleeds for the woman molested at Raj Bhavan, it’s a shame,” she added.
